When he met Mel, he took a gamble, and it turned out that he was right.
"The destruction of your equipment will be delayed." Mel said in a calm tone a decision that made Jess ecstatic, "Before that, you can use them as you like - provided that you do not bring it to the ancestors.
install."
"But." Victor's eyes widened in disbelief, "We have already..."
"That's not important anymore, Victor." Jace grabbed his hand excitedly, "We will succeed soon - do you still remember the step we just deduced?"
"High-frequency oscillation?"
"Yes, let's start now!" Jess puffed up his chest, "Miss Congressman, my assistant and I will produce the results you want in no more than a week... for sure!"
Looking at the excited Jess and Victor who seemed to have some scruples, Mel was thoughtful, an elegant smile appeared on her lips, and then she nodded noncommittally, turned around and left here on her own -
—By the way, he also helped Jess and Victor lure away the troublesome patrol guards.
After she left, Victor looked at Jace in shock: "We have already promised Miss Lux."
"In Piltover, the Parliament will give us better conditions, which will be of great help to our research." Jess's attitude was exactly the opposite, "There is no upper or lower class in science!"
This is something Victor himself said before.
Hearing this, Victor frowned, but finally closed his mouth.
I am destined to have no sleep tonight.

The next day, Lux, who had almost tidied up the entire room in Forgan's Tavern, did not wait for Jace and Victor - just when she began to think about whether these two guys had let her pigeons go, the door was closed.
It rang.
It's a pity that it's not Jace, but Fander.
"Miss Lux, good morning." Fander seemed to be in good spirits, "I heard that you intend to dig something in Zaun and need some manpower, right?"
"Mr. Fandel is really well-informed." Lux nodded without denying, "Why, do you have any recommendations?"
"If possible, I hope my children can do something serious." Fandel pretended to be calm and picked up the pipe, blinked, glanced at the filter hanging on the wall, and finally just held it in his mouth.
He said, "Their energy is a little too strong and they need some suitable work to make them active."
"Digging tunnels is not something that ordinary children should do." Lux was very satisfied with Fander's answer, but on the surface she looked embarrassed, "I don't hire child labor."
"You don't need to pay your salary, they... they just need to do some serious things." When the forthright Fandel talked about this topic, he seemed a little hesitant, "Let them be a little more settled.
The relationship between us and Piltover has been tense recently, and you know the reason."
"I don't want to be a nanny." Lacus revealed Fander's thoughts with one word, "Don't even think about letting me take care of the children. Although I have only come into contact with Vi among the four children, I dare to say that they are definitely not fuel-efficient.
.”
"They are all good boys." Fandel took a deep breath, "I will help you find reliable people. They have the strictest mouths and are reliable. They don't need to pay you.
…”
"I'm not a stingy person." Lux smiled after hearing this, "However, if there are enough reliable manpower, maybe I can focus on other places... maybe?"
"That's really the best thing." After hearing this, Fandel finally let out a long breath, "Tonight at the latest, all the people in the dark alley who are tight-lipped and good at digging will come here to report."
"This couldn't be better." Lux nodded with satisfaction, "In addition, if those two people yesterday, Jace and Victor, come to see me again, remember to inform me as soon as possible. They are also very important to me.
.”
"That's natural." Fandel seemed to feel a lot more relaxed, "Forgan's Tavern can also provide guest recording services, hahaha, no extra charge is required!"
Finally, Fander left Lux's room happily.
Lux, who sat back on the chair again, asked Kalya about her confusion.
"Why has Vandel's attitude changed so much?"
"What change of attitude?" Kalya asked, "Are you right about us?"
"Yes." Lux nodded, "Besides, he obviously knows nothing about our origins..."
"But he knows that we are on their side, and that's enough." Kalya laughed and said, "Don't look at this guy's honest appearance. In fact, he knows many things better than anyone else. Do you dare to directly confront the law enforcement officer?
You're welcome, then you are half one of his own to him."
"Then he thrust his children into my hands?" Lux still didn't understand. "Obviously he cares about those children so much."
"That's because you didn't notice a phenomenon that Janna said yesterday." Kalya sighed after hearing this, "Obviously many Zaun people gnash their teeth when mentioning Piltover, but if they can become Piltover people, they often don't
Refuse - and their attitude towards those who enter Piltover on their own merits, such as Victor you met yesterday, is also very subtle."
"...It seems like this!" Lux thought for a moment and blinked in surprise, "I really didn't notice it."
"Except for a few stupid young people, no Zaun wants to live in a shabby place." Kalya continued, "And no parents want their children to live in a shabby place - the parents of those children
There is a blood feud with Piltover, and their future does not lie in Piltover, so Fandral is probably worried about them."
"But I'm different?"
"Yes, you are different." Kalya's tone became pleasant again, "You are from outside, and you are a very powerful mage. Even if the Zaun people don't even know what a mage means, at least they can understand that you
Different, so for Fandel, leaving those children to you is a no choice."
"He doesn't want his children to roll around in the ditch, but he doesn't want them to go to Piltover either!" Lux suddenly realized, "And my performance all along is to prove to Fander that I can be a new choice!"
"That's it!" Kalya said happily, "Inviting Jess to Fulgen's Tavern for an interview was a stroke of genius. Lux, although I don't think you meant it, it dispelled Fander's last worry. A Piltover
Many scientists are willing to accept your funding, why can’t he give it a try?”
